Relaxing and romantic! - Phil was very chill and awesome! He very politely answered the million questions we had about the boat. The boat was stunning! We ended up getting a private tour. Make sure you are a responsible adult and show up on time and you will have a great experience.

Smooth Sailing - Captain Phillip was the ultimate guide and nautical navigator for this tour; his knowledge of sailing and the water was truly impressive and really added to our overall experience of this trip. The boat was comfortable and the beverages were great! The tour highlighted beautiful sights around San Diego, that otherwise would not be accessible. Our family truly appreciated Captain Phillip, his insights, and the boat Liberty. The size of the boat (holds up to 6) was perfect for our four-member family, with comfortable room to even climb to the bow and get up close to the sea lions! Would highly recommend him specifically for tours!!

Gorgeous views and fun ride! - Captain Philip made us right at home and served drinks before we powered out of the marina. We sailed out through the bay past the naval base. We saw zodiacs head out for BUD/S training and helicopters fly in and out for training at the navel base. The boat had beautiful wood detail and it was a gorgeous evening sail and the sun set.

Hello????? - I would love to rate this higher because sailing on a beautiful boat in the San Diego Harbor on a lovely day should only be wonderful. However when your captain chooses not to tell you anything about the boat, sailing, San Diego, etc. it makes 3 hours seem like 6. Thankfully the other two participants were lovely and the 4 of us were able to chit chat. Even when asked questions we got 2 word answers. I’m not sure if captain was having a bad day or what, but I learned nothing from his lifetime career of sailing in San Diego. I also was very disappointed as the sun begin to set and our boat was situated behind navel air craft carriers. There was no reason given why we didn’t get to see the sunset on a sunset sailing experience.
